Canât believe you are gone. Life will be difficult without you bhaiya. I will miss your laughter your hilarious jokes and your kindness. You charmed everyone who met you with your sense of humour you would light the darkest room. My gentle pyara bhaiya you were the best brother any one could have. You were my first best friend growing up. So many beautiful childhood memories. Most of them bringing smiles on our face of how naughty yet brave you were. You were everyoneâs favourite . You always checked on me. Itâs Raksha bandhan today. I miss you soo much. I miss your voice, your advice and just knowing you were a phone call away. I will love you my bhaiya until my last breath. May God bless your soul. RIP bhaiya.Sadhna Verma Hussain

Dearest Sudhir! Memories of Tawakubu, Lautoka come flooding as I recall my childhood. Those were the carefree days and you were so full of energy as a young boy. There was mischief, jokes, fun and laughter. You knew how to win people with your sense of humour and caring ways. You grew up into a humble and loving family man forever to be remembered. May you rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon you. Amita Jiji & James Jija, Sydney.Anonymous
Bhai,I know I was only 9 years old when I left Lautoka but we still remembered each other from the primary school days. Even though I didn't get a chance to meet you after I left fiji,I was in touch with Sadhana. She always filled me with all the people we knew during childhood. You surely will be missed by all who knew you well. Until we meet again bhai. Om Shanti Shanti Shanti. Anjie n family.Anjie Kumar
